As we become purer channels for God’s light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be.

Marianne Williamson

Interpretation

The quotation frames spiritual growth as a process of becoming a clearer “channel” for divine love or illumination. As the self is purified—through forgiveness, inner work, or relinquishing fear—one’s desires shift from bitterness and conflict toward an “appetite” for sweetness: the capacity to perceive and cultivate goodness in ordinary life. The second sentence contrasts reactive struggle with creative transformation. A “miracle worker,” in Williamson’s idiom (influenced by A Course in Miracles), is not primarily an opponent of the world’s brokenness but an agent who helps bring forth a more loving reality by choosing perception, compassion, and constructive action. The emphasis is on creation over combat.
